I am new to this and have searched and found only a few. Does anyone know a better place to find buttons or graphics for the new Directv channels. The list of files on here seems a little scarce.

Did you try the Pronto NG files section?

The TV channel logos that I worked up are available here. They include all of the current HD channels offered via Verizon FIOS along with a few analog stations. I would have made more, but don't watch much TV. The download includes the Photoshop template file I use for creating new logos by the way. Perhaps you might try your hand at creating your own. :-)

Are you looking for buttons for the 9600 or the 9400? They both are available out on Philips website located at http://www.pronto.philips.com. I know it is not ALL of the stations, however it has the majority of them covered. I know I found the majority of the DirecTV's stations using this gallery, and for the ones I could not find I just used Corel's Paint Shop Pro.

If you download the ones from Philips all you have to do is import the appropriate gallery into the ProntoEdit Professional software. Then be sure to check the "Buttons" tab of the gallery and you should see the new channel listings in there. These will also give you something to work with when creating your own channel icons. Hope that helps.

For the Directv color buttons, I just select one of the round bitmaps from the gallery Phillips provides -- label it with the record symbol -- change the label font size to around 48 (or until it fills in the round bitmap) -- and then change the label color to either red, green, yellow, or blue.

I do this four times and I am able to get all 4 of the Directv color buttons. May not be the prettiest looking solution, but perhaps an easy one for anyone who is not adept with imaging software.
